 Through movement, dancers explored the external behaviors, rituals, and patterns we engage in on a daily basis - waking up, tying our shoes, eating, going to work getting dressed, getting undressed. These mundane actions can feel like cogs in a larger machine of existence. Internally, and often unseen, we are a well of human experience shaped by memories, relationships, events in our life, and emotions. These shared acts are widely varied, but can overlap and intersect - connecting us in ways that can be easily seen, and other times only felt.

Mode of being featured a live, original score, created directly in conversation with the choreography and exhibition.
